About Amanda
Amanda Perry is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 10 years of clinical experience. She has worked as a school counselor and now provides outpatient therapy. She helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, self-esteem, and anger.
Amanda draws on practical, evidence-based techniques to help people manage strong emotions and day-to-day struggles. She works with concentration, memory, and focus concerns often labelled ADHD, and addresses issues from grief and trauma to sleep and eating difficulties. She also supports people dealing with career stress, addiction-related concerns, and questions about sexuality and identity.
In sessions she aims to create a straightforward, nonjudgmental space for talking through problems. Conversations focus on what is happening now, what patterns keep repeating, and which small changes might reduce tension and reactivity. She encourages clients to try specific tools between appointments and then review what helps.
Amanda has experience from school settings that informs how she explains coping strategies in plain language. That background also shapes her work with motivation, confidence, and communication problems. She includes practical skills for managing control issues, jealousy, body image, and seasonal mood changes.
People working through life transitions, fertility concerns, or long-term stress often find the step-by-step focus useful. Sessions combine short-term problem solving with work on longer-standing patterns. To begin, clients are invited to describe the problem and set clear, achievable goals for change.
Approaches for managing strong emotions online
Evidence-based techniques often focus on clear skills you can practice. Cognitive approaches help people notice thoughts that fuel anger and test whether those thoughts are accurate. That can reduce the intensity of reactions and help with workplace or relationship frustration.Behavioral skills training breaks down responses into manageable steps. It teaches practical strategies such as breathing, short behavioral experiments, and communication scripts to lower escalation and improve how someone expresses upset. Those skills are useful for stress, sleep problems, and repetitive patterns of conflict.
Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will help identify which techniques match the client’s goals and preferences and will adjust plans based on what helps. This is a collaborative process that focuses on small, measurable changes.

Online work can also make it easier to try skills in real-life situations and then review how they went in the next appointment.
